Soviet achievements and innovations were mostly based on espionage, copies/rip offs and forced labor as their initial space program turned out to be. The reason for this is that the atmosphere did not encourage creativity as commies tended to mediocre everyone and the system's bureaucratic rigidity et cetera. After such a waste of talent and brain drain, no one has to wonder about the backwardness of its today's successor, in practice it is still a developing country when taking into account its poor infrastructure, corruption, "justice system" and the share of exports of raw materials in GDP etc. and this current authoritarian regime does not improve the situation to say the least.
About the before mentioned space program; there were ca. 2,000 German rocketeers (engineers, scientists and mathematicians) as a forced labor on the Soviet space program from the end of the war till the late 1950s. Russkies recall eagerly about on the contribution of Wernher von Braun and partners to the US' space program, but for some reason they have a common amnesia in their very own case.
Let's forget rockets and the Sputnik in 1957 because much more significant achievement happened in 1969, the first toilet paper factory! The machines had been imported from the UK, albeit it took years to meet the need of the whole country - in fact, it appears to be still a chronic deficiency in public restrooms if someone daredevil has the courage to visit one.

- "Sputnik in 1957 was nothing compared to the one of the greatest Soviet achievements in 1969."
- "What was this achievement?"
- "The first toilet paper factory in the Soviet Union began production."
- "Oh, how about before that, did they all wipe their ass with a Pravda (Truth) newspaper or with an owl like tree huggers?"
- "Not all, some Tovarištš Comrades had imported toilet paper available, you know, all assholes were equal, but some assholes were more equal than others." (slightly modified George Orwell quote from his 'Animal Farm')

Get the Soviet achievements mug.The Soviet regimes had a manic need to display the country’s excellence to the world and especially for their own sovoks, whether the reason was the Slavic inferiority complex or whatever, for the civilized world their efforts were tragicomical, in reality it was a mere developing country with a nuclear weapon (due to the help of Western commies) and today's successor, Putinstan is basically unchanged with the same mindset.
"If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it."
Mikhail Kalashnikov also began to believe in this Soviet myth about himself as a creator of the AK 47, the quote is allegedly from Joseph Goebbels, the Minister of Propaganda in the Third Reich.
Immediately after the war, the Soviets began hunting experts in various fields from Germany for forced labor into the Soviet Union, among these thousands was also a weapon designer Hugo Schmeisser and his 15-member team and 500 other German gunsmiths, metallurgists and scientists. HS had developed the world's first usable assault rifle, the Strumgevehr 44. Kalashnikov denied having met Schmeisser ever (in the town of Izhmash), but at least once in a weak moment in an interview in 2009 he said he had "collaborated" with him - this is the good ol' Homo Sovieticus' hero-making method; talents develop a product, but the glory goes to the own peasant. Schmeisser was allowed to return to the "liberated" part of Germany in 1952 only to die the following year.

When the pompous Mikhail Kalashnikov statue was unveiled in Moscow 2017, at the same time, in a way, the real designer of the AK 47 was also unveiled, but only for a moment... The sculptor had blundered by depicting Schmeisser's designed StG 44 and its parts on the pedestal of the statue - an angle grinder was found and soon this embarrassing reminder of honest historiography was removed.

Get the Mikhail Kalashnikov mug.Teslam is a relatively new religion and its founder Elon Musk was inspired by scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard whose motto was: "If you want to get rich, you start a religion.” And Elon has done it and now he is a multi biljonaire, and for that Musk owes to his fanatic followers who naively believe they will save the world by driving Tesla electric cars.
Teslamism, like all extreme religious movements are a good excuse to stop thinking independently. However, Teslamist, at least not yet are as fundamentally hars toward the infidels that drive conventional cars as their "religion of peace" counterparts who tend to slit throats of dissidents, perhaps the difference comes from the fact that Prophet Musk was born in Pretoria, South Africa while his religion founder colleague was a hook nosed sand nigger.
Prophet Musk's followers do not want to hear the uncomfortable thruth that manufacturing an electric car produces over two times the amount of CO₂ emissions than the conventional one, nor do they want to be aware of that the battery industry uses a lot of child labor at the beginning of the procurement of the materials in shithole countries that Teslamists can imagine saving this planet by driving ”zero-emission cars."
Refining battery material and its transporting from place to place are the causes for the high emission figures which is inevitably only a temporary craze.

- "Indeed, wonder what does it transporting?"
- "Greetings and Teslam gospel, its carrying capacity is very modest due to the battery."

Get the Teslam mug."Predentian" is a portmanteau, a word made by blending in that case two words and it combines both the sounds and meanings of the originals, "pre" comes from the word PRETEND and "dentian" comes from INDIAN, in other words "predentian" is a fake Indian, a person who feigns to be indigenous. For various reasons some people have a motive to identify with indigenous peoples, Buffy Sainte-Marie is one of them. In the 60s when she was a young and aspiring musician, her indigenous imago no doubt greatly elevated her career also as a TV star later, it was a common phenomenon at the time and it still seems to be.
She was born in Stoneham, Maine, US, her birth name is Beverly Jean Santamaria (family used name Ste. Marie), her father was of Italian descent, mother's roots were in England.
This predentian has been fabricating contradictory tales about her ancestry since about her twenties. Once her family tried to correct her nonsense by telling that she is Beverly from Maine, not adopted indigenous child from Saskatchewan, Canada, she then threatened her family with expensive lawsuits, she was already an established star at the time and wealthy enough to destroy them financially with a herd of lawyers - and this was the mildest threat from this sociopathic pretendian. She has now finally been caught and reliably proven to be a swindler after decades of false indigenous ancestry claims.

Get the Pretendian mug.Mustafa Camel Analtürk is the national hero of the Turks and the founder of the Republic of Turkey without forgetting his tireless efforts in humanitarian work when the Ottoman Empire was already in decline, for instance he took good care of Assyrians and Greeks and of course, nullified the Armenian genocide trials right from the start because no such a thing had ever happened, it was just a lamentable misunderstanding due to the fact that every year the turkey as a species suffers genocide just before Thanksgiving because of murderous infidels - just ask another honest humanist Reset Kebab Erdoğan about it, he knows that it wasn't the first large-scale genocide in the 20th century as foreigners falsely claim, or like journalist Hrant Dink claimed, also the majority of Turks know this truth but unfortunately ignorant foreigners do not.
